    If this is true, then Donald better be prepared to wear a hard hat, if he thinks he's had a hard time from fans in the past, Then he's in for some heavy duty s hit coming his way if this is nothing more than a bluff.

    Maybe he's banking on signing the right players and having a good start to the season.

    Like he planned to get us promoted last year and flipped the club to Campbell... We all know his record with Eastleigh, it's happening here

    Atm, it is too flaming hot to get pizzed off at Donald's shenanigans in selling the club.

    It looks as if nobody serious is proceeding to a takeover for now.

    My guess the Scottish bampot would be a disaster, possibly worse than Donald.. looking at his track record, ie lies about his wealth and what he has done.

    So I will just see if English batting can score runs against a formidable Pakistan bowling pack.

    A takeover is i assume on the back-burner for now.

    Theoretically a more than achievable target but like you say their bowling looks on it and we were a train wreck.

    You’d take 277 to win in any test realistically though.

    A very tough day for the batsmen. Pakistan have a more than useful bowling attack.

    It’s not a case of trusting Barnes sadly it’s trusting the information the gobshite owners are feeding him.

    I don’t trust the owners as far as I can throw a bus.

    Got to lunch with only one down , first hour after lunch now becomes vital, if Root can settle down we are in for a great afternoon, no garden but a seat outside in the shade will have to do. Come on England.

    Unlucky mate grab a bag of cans and sit in the park playing with your Nads. Everything will be fine. (Disclaimer - you will probably get arrested and I accept no responsibility for any fines or convictions that result from this advice)

    @Flatheed

    Reading between the lines, it sounds like Sartori may have found some backers and is leading the takeover.

    Am I reading it right?

    Yeah I agree
    Barnes can only relay what he has been told

    We needed Root to stick around.

    The ball that got Pope was nasty. It took off.

    Come on Buttler!

    I've started watching again. Buttler who has been terrible behind the stumps, needs a big score...and he knows it...to keep his place in the team.

    Tense final session today...
